Ich hätte gern ne bess're Welt, um darin zu leben
Denn einiges an unserer finde ich daneben
Viel zu viel wird investiert in Waffen und in Krieg,
ich schlage vor wir lassen das dann ha'm wir mehr Geld für Musik
Ein Vorteil liegt klar auf der Hand: Musik will nichts zerstör'n
Und wer nicht dauern schießen muss hat mehr Zeit sie zu hör'n
Und hätt ich das im Bundestag erzählt,
dann hätte mich das Volk bestimmt gewählt gewählt (Einstimmig!)
Doch ich geh nicht in die Politik, das lass ich lieber bleiben
Ich will nur einen schönen Popsong schreiben
Ich würd gern durch die Stadt gehn, Hand in Hand mit dir
Wenn dann das Lied im Radio läuft würd ick sagen: "Det is von mir"
Dann würdest du mich küssen, zum ersten mal im Leben
Ich würde wirklich alles tun ich würde alles geben
Für ein Lied was einfach alle Menschen lieben
So schön als hätt' der Himmel es geschrieben
Doch ich will das mit dem Ehrgeiz jetzt auch gar nicht übertreiben.
Ich will nur 'nen okayen Popsong schreiben.
Ein Lied was dich packt und nicht mehr los lässt,
weil es dazu viel zu groß ist
Circa 70 Meter schon im ersten Jahr
Ein Lied was hart ist uns zugleich,
charmanter noch als Österreich,
als wär' der Sommer wieder da und sänge aah aaah aaaaaaaaaah
Das soll jetzt nicht so rüberkomm' als ob ich ständig high bin,
ich wollte nur 'nen kleinen Popsong schreiben.
